Kahseh ran into the crowd as fast as he could. Myra was still on his tail even after about 3 minutes of running so he knew he had to do something about her. She was the captain of the Thunder Dyke pirates, despite her size he knew that her bone using skill wasn't just an ordinary skillset. One on one he probably couldn't beat her so he had to be smart. She had a gun, a sword, and a pouch in front of her holding something. Quickly he turned around to see her. He was so tall that when he wasn't running she could see him clear as day from her distance. The only way he would win was if he surprised attacked her or some shit so that was his next plan. When the bronze viking spotted her he began sprinting again as she spotted him. The crowd was big enough for him to blend in if he moved correctly, he just needed a place to camp. Kahseh rushed himself and before he knew it there was no longer a crowd, instead he was faced with a row of seven Thunder Dyke Pirates cutting anybody off from moving forward.
"Shit." he whispered as him and the dykes made eye contact. This wasn't good. They had already planned this entire trap which meant that they were watching him very very closely these last few days. How could he have been so careless?
"There he is!" One of the Dykes shouted.
"You're such a tough guy right!? Come take us on." The fearless women drew their swords. With Myra behind him he knew there was a matter of time before she caught up.
"Not today." He said as he darted back into the crowd.
"Don't worry ladies, there's nowhere left for him to run. On the other side Captain Gin and his men are waiting there so if even he turns back he's a goner."The captain and Myra are working together I have to assume. She's a pirate after all and Gin didn't attempt to apprehend her. Both of them are after me too so that's enough proof. But then...why isn't Gin with Myra? Holy shit...it's a bigger trap then I thought. Kah had to find somewhere to enter and fast. The viking moved from the middle of the crowd to the left side so that he could walk beside shops and other buildings, hopefully finding one that he could enter and reach the roof without being seen. The gods seemed to work in his favor because it didn't take him long to find exactly what he needed. Beside him was. sign that read
"Pencil Shop" Amazing. Nobody would ever go into a pencil shop. Quickly he opened the door but to his surprise there were a bunch of people there. At the front of the shop behind the register read
"Back to School Sale" Guess the gods weren't working too hard for him. Still, he had to sneak to the roof. Quietly he moved towards the stairs on the side of the shop, slowly walking up them until he heard
"Hey! You can't go up there!" Not the fucking Pencil Shop owner too. He was caught. Quickly he continued to move up the stairs until he got to a metal door that led to the roof. he could hear the steps beneath him and with a voice that spoke.
"Hey! Sir, sorry you can't be up here! You've got to come down now." "Sorry sir I can't do that." He said as he pushed the door opened and slammed it behind him. The man banged on the door.
"Come on man I have a whole shop full of kids that need pencils, I don't wanna have to get the Marines involved. "It's too late for that my friend." He responded through the door. When the shop owner finally ran down the stairs, Kahseh quickly made his way to the edge of the roof before kneeling.
First he confirmed the position of all 7 Dykes. From where he was at they hadn't seen him but they were going to die. Without another moment wasted he drew an arrow and aimed it at the head of the Dyke that spoke to him first. The arrow ripped through the sky, hitting the woman in her neck. He was aiming for the head, but fuck it. The rest of the dykes looked around as their peer fell to the ground but Kahseh was able to release a total of 6 more arrows before they realized his position. He didn't land not one headshot considering they were 20 meters away from him, but he knew that they were dead for sure. Kahseh quickly moved over to the other side of the roof where he could see Gin and his men standing on the other side of the crowd, just waiting for him to appear. He knelt down and delivered four bows to each of Gin's men but Gin wasn't there. After noticing this, he knew it was time to go. Myra had been reaching the end of the crowd and would see her dead crew mates soon, so K jolted from the roof and back down the stairs where the shop owner had been waiting.
"Hey where are you going?! I just called the Marine Captain to arrest you! Wait!" "Dammit, he called Gin." he whispered to himself as he zoomed out of the shop. By now Myra was out of the crowd and had probably already seen her dead mates so Kahseh placed an arrow in his bow and readied it for when he'd approach behind her. When he reached the end of the crowd, there Myra was standing over the bodies with her back to Kahseh.
"I didn't want to kill any of you, I hope you forgive me wherever you're going." Myra turned around full of Fury and range as her arms became encased in bone.
"You little dick! You couldn't even fight me head on!" Meanwhile Captain Gin had arrived at the pencil shop moments after Kahseh left. The captain quickly approached the shop owner.
"You said there was a man on the roof? A tall brown skinned male with a red cloak, correct?" "Yeah but you just missed him! He went to the right!" Gin left the shop using that instantaneous step thingy again.
Myra began charging towards Kahseh but the young Viking released his arrow aimed at her head, penetrating her brain as soon as it touched her, causing her to fall to the floor.
"Well fuck you too." It was hard being nice sometimes. The entire crowd screamed in terror and dispersed as Myra's body fell to the floor. Kah was used to it by now. All these people got from him since he's been here was that he was the villain, little did they know about what happened behind closed curtains. Such a shame that Momoiro wouldn't be one of the worlds that he'd bring into his universe. Truth be told, Myra would have crushed him in close combat but her brain wasn't as sharp as his which is why she'd be the one to die. Kahseh scurried over towards her body before fishing through her gear. She had a sword, and a dagger. None of which he wanted. That pouch in front of her though was rather intriguing. The viking did what he did best and scavenged. He unzipped the pouch and what he found almost made no sense. It was a shell, one with glory red veins it seemed like. On one side of the dial there was an Apex.
"The hell?" He said to himself. He shrugged it off and placed the shell in the inside of his cloak, he'd mess with it later or something.
"Wow. I'd assume everyone knew what a Dial was." There he was. Captain Gin, Kahn's last enemy....for now. Kahseh turned around and placed his bow and arrows over his shoulder.
"Gin...I've killed the leader of the Thunder Dyke Pirates and her loyal servants, just let me go." It was a long shot. He was so desperate for rest at this point that he was actually asking for his freedom as if Gin wen through all this trouble without a purpose.
"Oho! You're a silly kiddo aren't ya!? I will say though, very clever overestimating Myra, she's no weakling. However, she is a fool.""I am tired of being a target. I've been a target my entire life, if you think you can come here and expect me to willingly surrender, you've never been so wrong in your life." Kahseh drew his sword while simultaneously acting both of his cloaks for double the durability. Needless to say it didn't do much now but it helped regardless.
"Oh no. At this point I'll take you dead or alive! Ohohohoho! Once I have you me and my men will get a handsome reward. The son of the great Tristan Raider right where I want him! Ohohoho! Of course I have my own plans with you before I hand you in." Kahseh smirked before cracking his neck. He could almost sense that Captain Gin would be a much stronger foe than Myra but if he was going to die today it was gonna be with sweg.
"Well, it seems like you'll be the only one getting those rewards. I killed your men." He said blatantly. Captain Gins happiness faded into the darkness of fury.
"Well then! Once I'm done with you, I'll give your men a slow death. Fair?" Just then the old man stepped at a much faster speed than before, slamming his palm directly into Kahseh's stomach, causing him to spit. He then used Geppo to propel himself into the air before spinning downward landing a kick onto Kah's hand slamming him directly into the ground. It all happened so fast the young lord couldn't react in time. Quickly he pushed himself up, but over him was the old man. This was unbelievable. He had absolutely no true offensive skills and he wasn't even the best of fighters. What's even worse was that his Raider's Armor was at it's lowest level. Then it hit him, the last time he trained was on Karakuri, this whole time he'd been fighting off weak enemies but his bounty was growing. If he made it out alive he would definitely be training more.
Gin kicked Kahseh in his stomach as soon as he got to his knees, causing him to fly 5 meters into the distance landing on his back. The Captain grinned and slowly made his way over towards his enemy. Gin was too fast...too strong. This was embarrassing. Blood trickled from Kah's nose onto his lip.
"Ah fuck. This old fucker isn't even letting me stand." As he wiped his nose he noticed something both creepy and extremely mind blowing... his blood... it was
Silver!? He thought to himself as he looked down at his hand with a panicked expression.
What the fuck is going on!? He didn't have the luxury of time to think too hard though. Gin was coming. The old man stopped 3 meters away from the viking.
"I don't know how you've lasted this long. Oho! Here I thought the son of Tristan Raider would be someone amazing but it turns out...you're a failure." With nothing else left up his sleeve, Kahseh placed his hand inside his coat, clenching the dial he picked up in his hand.
"Before I end your life, is there anything you want to say?" Please let this be something I need right now. Kahseh looked down at the ground for a moment, then lifted his head with a smirk.
"Suck my dick, bitch." He said confidently as he pulled out the dial before using the button on the side whilst aiming at Gin. Immediately a blast of fire roared out of the shell.
"Oh shi-" The fire engulfed Captain Gins entire body and the stream of fire went on for about 5 seconds before stopping. The captain screamed to the top of his lungs in pain as the fire burned every muscle in his body.
When the fire finally stopped, all that remained was a man who's entire body was nothing but blistering flesh and bone. The senior fell to the floor and finally... it was done. Everything aside, The viking touched his nose again just to see if what he saw was real and sure enough his blood was silver.
What the hell does this mean? He thought. Not long after, he heard footsteps approaching him from every corner.
"My Lord!" One of his men exclaimed.
"Are you alright?!" Another said as they helped to pick him up.
"Your nose...it's bleeding...silver?!" "I don't know what it...me...." The viking passed out on the spot.
"Come on, let's hurry and get him back to the ship."~ EXIT ~
